I wasn't around Django at that time, but to mee it seems pretty clear that those two aren't explicit design decisions made by Django but instead Django just decided to use gettext[1], the de-facto standard for internationalization in the Unix world instead of implementing an own system and both the gathering and the .mo files are old design decisions of gettext.
